Omkar Godbole FXStreet Contributor

The USD/CAD pair is gaining altitude, now trading at a seven-day high of 1.3238, having confirmed a falling wedge breakout with a close at 1.3213 yesterday.

Daily chart

The falling wedge breakout seen in the above chart represents a bearish-to-bullish trend change. As a result, the immediate resistance of the 50-day moving average (MA), currently at 1.3273 could be put to the test, albeit after a minor pullback, as the short duration charts are reporting overbought conditions.

Hourly chart

The relative strength index (RSI) is held in overbought territory above 70.00. As a result, the spot may fall back to the support at 1.3210 before extending the rally towards 1.3273, as suggested by the daily chart.
